No. 11

Free Bird (Live) - Lynyrd Skynyrd (1973) Video - "What song is it you wanna hear? Free Bird!" A line that will live on long after every original member has departed. This is the closing song to every Skynyrd concert. The meaning is somewhat ambiguous, but the story I believe is that it was written as a tribute to Duane Allman. If it sounds like the guitar solos are way too rich, that's because 2 guitarists are playing the exact same notes in tandem. Also, if you're given the option of choosing the music for a lapdance, a crude friend of mine said to always choose Free Bird and insist on the live version as it runs over 14 minutes :)
